I need to monitor when a filesystem reduces in size based on a rate of reduction rather than an actual number.

I have added this trigger:
{server.solaris.local:vfs.fs.size[/tmp,total].change(0)}>1073741824

Will this trigger when the difference between the last received value and the current value is greater than 1GB?

Thanks!

ok so it looks like this does indeed trigger, but I just got an alert that it grew and I need to know only if it gets smaller.. I suppose delta may be the answer?
